Gronk thinks Josh McDaniels is ‘perfect fit' with Drake Maye for this reason

The Patriots hired some old friends to their coaching staff this offseason, and one of their former stars is fully supportive of those decisions.

First it was Mike Vrabel, the former Patriots linebacker, who was brought in as head coach. Then, former offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels got his old job back for the third time.

Four-time Super Bowl champion Rob Gronkowski, in an interview with NBC, outlined why those decisions -- specifically pairing McDaniels with quarterback Drake Maye -- will be positive for the franchise.

"I think Josh McDaniels was the perfect fit to be the offensive coordinator, especially in that position that they are in right now with Drake Maye at the quarterback position," Gronkowski explained.
